This is the story of Derby Countys triumphant 1971-72 season at the end of which they were crowned champions of England for the first time. It was the Rams seventy-second in League football, forty-five of which had been played in the top flight and Brian Cloughs tiny squad of first team players had to finish above the likes of Don Revies formidable Leeds United and Bill Shanklys outstanding Liverpool side to win the title. About the Author David Moore has been a Derby County supporter since the day his father took him to the Baseball Ground to celebrate his seventh birthday on Easter Monday in 1950. Derby beat West Brom 3-1 and he was hooked for life. David, who hails from the village of Hanbury, was educated at Burton Grammar School before embarking on a career as a master brewer with Bass. He has contributed a regular column to the Rams' matchday programme since 1996 and has also co-authored a book on the history of Burton upon Trent pubs.
